A part-time MBA gives working professionals the opportunity to develop management and leadership skills without stepping away from their careers. For most people considering an MBA, the ability to continue working throughout their studies is not just a preference — it is a practical necessity.
A part-time MBA is a Master of Business Administration programme structured to be completed alongside full-time employment. For a complete overview of what an MBA programme involves, the MBA programme page covers all the key details.
Online MBA programmes offer maximum flexibility. More on this format is available on the online MBA page. The Executive MBA in eight months is a particularly efficient format for experienced managers.
The most immediate benefit is continuity. Studying an MBA whilst working also demonstrates to employers a level of self-discipline and commitment that has its own professional value.
The OBS MBA takes eight months — considerably shorter than most part-time alternatives. Check the entry requirements for any programme you are considering before applying.

Do I need a bachelor's degree for a part-time MBA?
Not necessarily. Some programmes — including the OBS MBA — accept substantial professional experience as an alternative to a formal undergraduate degree. Full details are on the MBA without a bachelor's degree page.
